I don't know much about AI so I really look forward to reading the posts for this challenge and learning a bit more about it.

 

When I think about the AI that is part of my life currently, two things come to mind, my robot vacuum and My Boy Blue. My robot vacuum is nice and I appreciate that it keeps the dust and dirt off the floor since I enjoy walking around my home barefoot, haha. It doesn't seem very smart at times and even though I think it is supposed to learn and get better over time, I don't see it happening. I was going to make a joke about it, but I will refrain since I know a lot of the readers get offended fairly easily these days, haha. My Boy Blue on the other hand is incredibly intelligent and I have witnessed its immense progress over the years.

 

When I refer to My Boy Blue, for those that don't already know, I am referring to my Tesla. I was told that I had to name it, so My Boy Blue is what I came up with and I have loved it since the first day that I have owned it. I was also told that I should name my robot vacuum and I allowed my nephews to name it for me. They agreed it should be known as BillyBob, so BillyBob it is, even though the voice is feminine, haha.

 

I could talk for days about all that My Boy Blue can do, but since I believe that I am nearing the 300-word quota for this challenge, I will wrap things up with just a couple of thoughts. Everything with regard to the vehicle works the way that I would want it to work, so much so that when I would drive my previous vehicle, it felt like such a hassle and a drag, so I sold it, haha. I have witnessed the vehicle grow much smarter over the years, especially with regard to being able to drive itself. It amazes me and anyone that I have riding along with me when I put an address in and it can fully drive me there without any assistance. The other thing I love about it is the service it requires or the lack thereof. This makes the vehicle so much more affordable than anything I have ever driven before and my last vehicle was a Toyota Camry. Recently, the vehicle alerted me that my 12V battery (same battery as your car has) was low and suggested that I request service. Does your vehicle alert you when your battery is getting low or do you end up stuck in the middle of nowhere and have to call roadside assistance? I requested service through the app on my phone, they scheduled it for the next day, and they came to my house! It was such an easy and comfortable process, and I was only charged $116 for all of it, haha. When I drive My Boy Blue, I can't imagine ever driving anything else, and I even dread anytime that I might have to rent a car that is anything else since I know that I will not enjoy driving it, haha.

It depends on where I am charging George Souto and I rarely charge to full capacity.  If I am at a supercharger, they charge at 500-1000 mph, so to go from 20-80% it usually takes 15-20 minutes.  I only use those on road trips.  99% of the time I am charging at home and I plug into the outlet for my dryer.  It charges at a rate of 22 mph, which gives me around 50% each night.  I charge between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. because that is when I get super off-peak rates.  Rarely do I use 50% of my battery in a day, normally I use 20-25% and wake up every morning with a full tank, haha.  I only charge to 85% each night, so that is what I consider a full tank.  If you have other questions, feel free to call anytime, it's easy to talk about how much I LOVE my Tesla, haha.

Yes, they are both wonderful and frightening at the same time Myrl Jeffcoat but I have experienced nothing but wonderfulness from My Boy Blue so far, haha.

Haha, that is too funny Endre Barath, Jr. and I definitely prefer being a man of few words, since I appreciate clarity and conciseness.  You are one of the few that met My Boy Blue in person and I apologize for not properly introducing the two of you, haha.  I am a big fan of the Chief Twit.  It sounds like Bob "RealMan" Timm wishes I wrote more on my posts as well?

Brian England - I know you have talked about your boy Blue many times and you are definetly sold on Tesla as a proud owner. 

I would be scared to drive a car that can drive itself. Kudos to you for having no fear and to proudly write testimonials about your boy Blue! I bought a new Subaru less than a year ago and I love my "Pearl Ocean Blue" vehicle. That is the paint color but I didn't name my car. 

This is a great entry for the AI Challenge!

Well, if the car drove itself, you wouldn't have to drive Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP so you wouldn't have to be scared, haha.  If you were to ride along sometime, you would be amazed!!!

Brian England - Nope! As a kid I think I was traumatized being squashed in the back seat with all my siblings while my dad drove and my mother was the navigator keeping him in between the lines and giving him directions which most of the time, he didn't follow. We didn't have seat belts back then, and I was always stuck in the middle. Then when my spouse drove, he was a maniac behind the wheel! He wouldn't let me drive either. You couldn't imagine how many rosaries I prayed when when drove far.

The battery service fee is very impressive.  I find the whole subject of Tesla fascinating because he is so controversial - many people can't consider the car without thinking about him.

I find it funny that he is found to be controversial Lise Howe since all he wants to do is make the world a better place.  I guess there are too many against making the world a better place and I think it is because that will lead to less money for them, haha.

Brian, I will also be watching for the AI June Challenge entries.  I just watched a half-hour news and information program on AI. I wasn't previously focusing on its dangers to society and humanity;  seems I was previously looking at only the positive.  The TV program jarred my senses.

Hi Brian:

This was a fun read for the Challenge. You are clearly a walking, and driving, fan of Tesla. Seems like you named your car appropriately.

Glad you found a connection to re-charge your Boy Blue when you visited the Silo, Brian. A friend now installs personal usage chargers on people's residential properties. He remains busy! It must make Elon Musk very happy about that!

When I was in Veyo, I plugged into a regular wall outlet, the same as you plug your blender into Wanda Kubat-Nerdin - Wanda Can! and that was good enough for me, haha.  I got excited when I saw the washer and dryer near a window that My Boy Blue could park beside since normally a dryer outlet is higher amps, thus My Boy Blue would charge faster, but it turned out to only be a regular outlet that the dryer plugged into, haha.

Of course, Ray and I love the color blue you chose for your Boy Blue, Brian! #GoDuke!

And, what on earth are you talking about people being offended?!! I've heard that twice from two of my favorite people here in the Rain this week. Curiosity is killing the cat!!

You are too funny, Debe Maxwell, CRS I would like to think of My Boy Blue more of a U of A Wildcat blue than a Duke blue, haha.  #GoCats  I just reread my post and don't recall what I was referring to when I mentioned people in the Rain tend to get offended easily but I think it might have had to do something with my robot vaccuum having a feminine voice but a masculine name, haha.
